Creation date: 13 January 2012

On the occasion of the Conference "The New World of Technological Systems for Mobility - the supply and demand meet," held in Bologna on 28 and 29 November 2011, TTS Italia presented its position paper on the transposition and implementation of the European Directive 2010/40/UE on the general framework for the deployment of Intelligent Systems in the field of road transport and interfaces with other transport modes. The position paper, illustrated by the new president of TTS Italia, Rossella Panero, highlights the issues that the Association believes priority in view of the transposition and implementation of the ITS Directive. The document also wants to be a first contribution to the jobs that are being undertaken by the Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport for the definition of the National Action Plan on ITS as required by the Directive. The position paper has also highlighted the Italian best practices on ITS as well as the critical issues that have impeded the full launch of the sector and yet, in fact, are preventing these systems from ensuring maximum benefits from both social and economic point of view.
